Living in blissful ignorance, I thought all early model W126 ATE calipers were the same. It very well could have been off a gasser car. I'm pretty sure I took it off a first gen W126, though. I don't remember exactly what model the car was since I thought they were going to be the same calipers.
Since I am free most of tomorrow, I'll pop off the LF caliper on my car and see if the dust boot will fit via physical comparison. The question is: do I have the right rebuild kit for my car but the wrong test caliper, or is the rebuild kit wrong all together? That's what I aim to find out.
